In Memoriam

We here at Fatty Mcblog want to take a minute to remember actress Wendie Jo Sperber. Wendy passed away after a long battle with cancer. Wendie, literally, was one of the first larger ladies I ever saw on television that was cool. So, here's to you Wendie, we'll miss you!!!!

She is from bosom buddies! how sad! I met her in L.A. at the Revlon run walk for breast cancer (about 5 years ago). She came right up to me and started talking to me like nothing. She was really down to earth and sweet.

She was also "Linda McFly" on all three of the Back to the Future films. Two seconds on google will give you all her demographic information...

She was a beautiful woman and from the sound of it, on the inside as well as the outside. It's very sad that she is no longer here on this earth - but it's very sweet that you ladies took a few minutes to honor her memory.

My favorite Wendie movie moment: in the movie 1941 - she's the cute girl's girlfriend and laughs hysterically when girlfriend's dad goes after boyfriend with a shotgun - but the best clip is the dance number in that movie - Wendie is hot for Treat Williams, names him STRETCH and screams his name as she does a semi-split slide manuver across the dance floor. She was fun, exciting, energetic and never made you think "oh a fat girl" or ANYTHING dissmissive. Instead you thought "what a riot" or "Omigod". I will miss her
